Mike tagged me in the desktop meme, which means I had to reveal my rather bland and somewhat not organized desktop.

Mike tagged me in this fun birthday meme where I get to find out more about what happened on my birthday. So what, besides me being born, happened on March 20?

Three Events on March 20

1. In 1815, Napoleon enters Paris with almost 350,000 troops and begins his Hundred Days rule.
2. Albert Einstein publishes his general theory of relativity in 1916.
3. The United States invasion of Iraq from 2000-2003 started in the wee hours of the morning on March 20.

Two Births on March 20

1. 1904 - American psychologist B.F. Skinner
2. 1928 - Mr. (Fred) Rogers

One Holiday on March 20

1. The Vernal Equinox - The First Day of Spring is generally celebrated on this day

How this meme works?

1. Go to Wikipedia and type in your birthday (month and day).
2. Write down three events, 2 births, 1 holiday and tag 5 friends.
3. There are five slots in the Birthday Meme. As you are tagged, you have to remove the name in the first slot and bump everyone up so that your name can be added to the bottom.

People who have completed this meme (minus one):

Mommyness is Happiness | This is a miracle | Mariuca | Mike | Danielle

Who I will tag:

Hernan | Mark | Aaron | Christy | Sapheyerblu

This was actually a very educational exercise. :)

Brad, the super cute young alien that hangs out with Gummy the Lovesick Alien, recently gave me a million dollars. Thanks Brad! Super generous of you, and actually I was quite surprised as I would have suspected that you would have wanted to keep it to buy yourself more bling! ;)

Here is what I plan to do with my million dollars:

Buy a modest cottage in the woods, equip it well with the latest in video games and computer equipment, some cool outdoor type equipment like an ATV and such, and move there… forever. Be the tech-savvy Thoreau of the modern age. I’d probably keep blogging because what else am I going to do. Maybe learn how to use a crossbow.

1. SYH will spend for Family
2. Miche will give to the needy
3. Montessorimum will keepsake
4. Lovely Mummy will spend & save
5. MummyInVain will fully utilise
6. Babyfiona will buy house and open business
7. MonkeyWong will go for a long vacation
8. Emila Yusof will realise her dream
9. Mariuca will open a Perfume Gallery
10.Janice Ng will upgrade house and go for long vacation
11.Hin will blog to donate for charity
12.Bobo will invest in property and let her parents go on a holiday.
13. Brad will spend all of his money on foolish gadgets
14. Danielle will buy a cottage in the woods and never look back

I would now like to present the following people with a million dollars of their own:

Linda, Brown Baron, Christy, Hernan, and Andrew

Just add yourself to the list, and pass it along. :D I am not sure if all these people participate in memes, but I kind of wanted to see what Linda would do with the money and I also wanted to see the coupon that Andrew would find to go along with a million dollars.

Mike and I started the Schmooze Award a while back. After joking around about the power of schmooze, the Schmooze Award was born. And the power of schmooze has indeed proven itself. ;) Well, a while back I was awarded the Schmooze Award by Tish. You can understand I was very excited to find out that I was now receiving the award that I helped create. Woohoo for me!

But who hasn’t been awarded this? I dunno. Hard to find. So I am going to award the five, one at a time.

The first person I am going to give this award to is Glen at Clickalite.com. I have noticed him spreading the schmooze all over the place recently. And his blog is quite good as well. :)
